It does not support virtual threads as their potential number, and the need to find a thread by id, does not make sense for this API. At the same time, JDK 19 introduced an alternative implementation of virtual threads for Zero and ports without continuations support in the VM. This alternative implementation of virtual threads means a JavaThread per virtual thread and so requires filtering to ensure that the API behaves as specified. For the initial implementation, the filtering was done in the ThreadMXBean implementation. That works for most functions but not for getThreadXXXTime(long[]) and getThreadAllocatedBytes(long[]) where the filtering needs to be pushed down to the management code.

It also fixes ThreadMXBean.getCurrentThreadCpuTime and getCurrentThreadUserTime to not throw UOE when CPU time measurement from a platform thread is supported. There are some small adjustments to the API docs (see linked CSR). Test coverage is expanded as we didn't include tests for c.s.management.ThreadMXBean with virtual threads in JDK 19.
